The Atlético de Madrid half took advantage of the extra ball he had in the league with the game postponed against him I raised, which ended 1-1. Bardhi He overtook the granota and Llorente, with the help of Rober
Pier, tied. Correa missed a resounding occasion after the break and then the rojiblanco team, which had more opportunities than the rival and was stopped by Aitor, ended up losing steam with the passage of minutes and changes. Tables that leave six points to Real Madrid and nine to Barcelona, with the whites still with one more game.
Atlético came out in command, with Levante shamelessly leaving the ball to the rojiblancos, who took advantage of it to have possession and begin to appear in the vicinity of the granota area, but without depth. A header from Suarez that came out brushing the stick was about to put the mattress team ahead, but the one that struck first was Levante.
In the first one he had, Bardhi left from Gimenez, which he measured fatally in his attempt to anticipate, and left in the center a highway to Of
Fruit, which he led until he returned it to the Macedonian to define with an unusual calm before Oblak in hand to hand.
Atlético had to row against it again. And after a few minutes of uncertainty, he took up the remote again to look 'seriously' at Aitor Fernandez to the eyes. It was when the Levante goal began to feel like a protagonist, starting with a volley from Suárez to which he responded, in an unorthodox but effective way, to abort the danger.
Atlético increasingly accumulated more people in three quarters, but that also left spaces for those of Paco Lopez run and carry out their initial plan. The script did not change the Madrid team, which found the tie through, again, Marcos Llorente. The Madrilenian planted himself in front and fired the shot. The ball hit him Rober Pier, to completely mislead Aitor and raise the 1-1 to the scoreboard. Everything comes out to the midfielder, touched by a magic wand facing the opposite goal, either assisting or scoring.
From there to the break, Atlético had several opportunities to score the second, but crashed again and again against Aitor. Saúl, Correa, Luis Suárez and Llorente They caressed it, but ended up desperate. As well as the rest of the players with the criteria of Munuera Montero with the cards. Saúl and SavicTwo of the three warned by the team saw yellow for “light” actions. Same punishment as the one he received Of fruits for hitting with a plate in Carrasco.
The Cholo should not see it very clearly, who left in the dressing room Vrsaljko to put Kondogbia. The same substitution as in Los Carmenes, but exchanging the entry and exit pieces. Llorente he moved into the right lane. And without time to assess whether it had been good for Atlético, strap he made one of those baffling plays he used to. With everything in favor, in the small area and without a goalkeeper, he sent the ball to the clouds. The ball had been left dead after Aitor reject a shot from Suarez that was going with a lot of intention.
The disappointment did not appease Atlético, who were eagerly seeking the goal. She entered well on the wing, but the last pass was missing for Suárez, always well placed, to push her. Answered Clerc with a powerful shot that repelled Oblak. Every time the Levante loomed, it carried danger. And the time came for Joao
Felix. The Portuguese reappeared after game time. The Portuguese entered through Carrasco, passing Saul on the left. Llorente was still the one who carried the most danger. The media could not find Joao, very covered. Yes to strap, but it was not the day of the Argentine, who ended up leaving his place to Vitolo, who played many weeks later. And Koke to Torreira. They contributed nothing. In the Levant they had come out Dani Gómez, Rubén Vezo and Son. The draw was worth them. But they had the victory, in a volley by Clerc against which a savior was shown Oblak to leave 1-1 on the scoreboard. And on Saturday, another Atlético-Levante.
